Brisbane boardwalk driver charged

A woman has been charged with drink driving after she allegedly drove her car onto a busy riverside pedestrian boardwalk in Brisbane.

Police allege the woman, who has also been charged with unlicensed driving, drove to Brisbane from Atkinsons Dam 85km away.

It's alleged she drove through the Kurilpa parkway limited-access walkway and bicycle path at South Bank around 6.50pm on Tuesday before being stopped by police.

At the time, the boardwalk was busy with pedestrians and cyclists.

She was taken to hospital and recorded a blood alcohol level of 0.153.

She'll appear in court on February 13.
